Could you benefit from a Gait Scan & Custom-Made Orthotics?

Did you know that your feet, and how you walk, can have a direct impact on the rest of your body?

A supposedly small problem with your feet can change the way you walk, which can then affect your posture, put stress on your joints and lead to pain in your knees, hips and back.

Custom-made orthotics can be part of the treatment that The Clinic at Vic-Ryn offers to help relieve conditions such as Plantar Fasciitis, Achilles Tendonitis, bunion or heel pain, but interestingly they can also really help with knee, hip and back pain.

At the clinic, physiotherapists and podiatrists are trained to assess your gait, and use a computerised Gait Scanner as part of a full Bio-mechanical Assessment. They examine how you are standing and walking, whilst looking at the muscle function of your entire lower limbs. They perform a computerised analysis using Gait Scan technology, and by collating this clinical data, individual prescription orthotics are made.

Clients are welcome to a printout report from their Gait Scan, which shows clearly if and why custom-made orthotics could be beneficial, as part of a treatment package.
